Burning Moon (2016)
“I felt positively nauseous from the panic-ment (excitement and panic) that had just gripped me.
I scanned the room frantically, looking, hoping, praying, wanting to see Damien. But I didn’t. Instead what I saw was Jess, sitting at a coffee table with her blunt bangs and faded pink T-shirt, sipping on a tall latte and eating a giant piece of red velvet cake. How was she so thin? If I ate that, Leonard would have to tie me to a treadmill, weigh me down with ten-pound weights, and beat me for ...the next week while I ran nonstop without sleep.
Lucky bitch.
I eyed the back of her; she had a cute star tattoo on the base of her neck, and I wanted nothing more than to go over and talk to her, but a part of me was frightened. No, frightened wasn’t the right word. Terrified.
What if she told me that Damien was great? Happy? That he’d settled down with some hot girl and they were going at it like porn stars all night long and spending all their other moments clutching on to each other like lovesick teenagers.MoreLess
